This bank leaves the old established banks in the past where they belong. It even outperforms most of the new wannabe online banks. Still waiting for the catch but hey so far so good.. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Excellent service on both my current and business accounts Reviewed on: 4th January 2020

Friendly, Logical and Intuitive Bank

5
Starling is a wonderful bank to be with. I have both business and personal accounts and have recommended it to many. The friendly accessible customer service, intuitive app, common-sense approach (pick your own PIN before for one) and beautifully designed and presented everything. This is the merest whiff of all the fabulousness of Starling. I have to confess to having not expected to have to write a review when voting, but fully understand why it is necessary, and so must keep it brief as have to zip off to complete a plethora of other pressing tasks. I hope what I have mustered helps Starling to achieve the accolade they deserve. Reviewed on: 4th January 2020
